How Can Depression Be Treated?

My husband has suffered from depression all his life and have been on many depression meds. Everyone he takes causes headaches and other side effects and he stops taking them in about a week. He has taken Zoloft, Wellbutrin , and others and he gets nausia and he can t stop clenching his teeth. Can you give any suggestion of a medication with the least amount of side effects and have been proven effective in studies over the years. Thank You, Carolyn
